Location looks correct #1. I don't have time to do an overlay right now, but will soon. Using the CONECA disk, it appears to be a late stage B-Early stage C. Somewhere in the middle of those two stages. Stage C has heavy die flow and wear toward the rim.

OK. I made an overlay and it wasn't conclussive, but I made a grid and it is a match to 1919S-1MM-001. Nice find.  Edited by coop

What position is your light source? It should be at 12:00 for the top of the coin. With the light at that position, you should be able to see the RPM better. Your first image showed the RPM best. The last two didn't show it.

The circulation wear may have reduced the height or the excessive die wear? On the stage "C" the die show wear lines. The image I posted above was the stage "A".

This is an RPM. Whether it is #1 I cannot say without examination, but it looks right from the images. There weren't very many dies used in San Francisco in 1919, so my guess is that you probably have 1919S-1MM-001. I have found ONE of these in circulated grade in the 30 years I have been studying the Lincoln Cent. They are not common. |
